Hex color #eda6c9 graphic
Think of bubblegum that has softened in the sun. #eda6c9 is a pastel pink with a warm, milky undertone, and its low saturation keeps the mood mellow. It works best as a dominant background in cosmetics, confectionery, and spring layouts, though it can wash out beside white, so anchor it with deep plum or forest green. Black text on top reaches about 10.9:1 contrast, well past WCAG AA.
